4. REQUESTED CHANGE(S):

a. Brief Overview of Change: The U.S. Pacific Command (PACOM) changed its name 

to U.S. Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM). DoDAAD needs to change COCOM field 

length and value to align with new name assigned by DOD.

b. Background: On May 30, 2018 there was a change of command ceremony on Joint 

Base Pearl Harbor Hickam to welcome a new commander, ADM Phil Davidson, who relieved 

ADM Harry Harris. Presiding over the ceremony, U.S. Defense Secretary James N. Mattis 

announced that USPACOM was also changing its name to U.S. Indo-Pacific Command 

(USINDOPACOM). “In recognition of the increasing connectivity between the Indian and

Pacific Oceans, today we rename the U.S. Pacific Command to U.S. Indo-Pacific Command,” 

said Mattis. “Over many decades this command has repeatedly adapted to changing 

circumstances and today carries that legacy forward as America focuses west.”

c. Requested Change in Detail: The field length of the COCOM field is currently only 

ten characters and will not support the official DOD name without truncating the value. DAAS 

will need to change the field length in the DoDAAD table from ten characters to fifteen 

characters. After the field size is changed, all values of USPACOM in the DoDAAD table must 

be changed to USINDOPACOM. NOTE: USTRANSCOM Reference Data Management 

(TRDM) has not made the COCOM value change to the source table as of this request, so DAAS 

may have to hard-code USINDOPACOM into the conversion routine until TRDM corrects their 

oversight.

d. Revisions to DLM 4000.25 Manuals: No update to DLMS Volume 6, Chapter 2. 

Will require update to the DoDAAD Series Table and Central Service Point (CSP) list

accordingly (after implementation).

e. Alternatives: None

5. REASON FOR CHANGE: Formerly known as United States Pacific Command 

(USPACOM) since its inception, the command was renamed to U.S. Indo-Pacific Command on 

May 30, 2018, in recognition of the increasing connectivity between the Indian and Pacific 

Oceans.

6. ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES:

a. Advantages: Defense Secretary James Mattis officially changed the name to U.S.

Indo-Pacific Command to reflect the growing importance of the Indian Ocean in U.S. strategic 

thinking. 

b. Disadvantages: Will require a change to all programs that use the COCOM field.

7. ESTIMATED TIME LINE/IMPLEMENTATION TARGET: Authorized for immediate 

implementation. Target timeline for DAAS updates to the DoDAAD is 90 days from the 

signature date of this ADC.

8. ESTIMATED SAVINGS/COST AVOIDANCE ASSOCIATED WITH 

IMPLEMENTATION OF THIS CHANGE: The cost savings is unknown. The requirement

is to implement mandated DOD name change.

9. IMPACT:

a. New DLMS Data Elements: None

b. Changes to DLMS Data Elements: None.

c. Automated Information Systems (AIS): Any systems that acquire COCOM data 

from the DoDAAD will be impacted by this Change.

d. DAAS: The COCOM is set by a stored procedure within the DoDAAD update 

application. The field is not manually entered, only displayed. Changes will be required to the 

following:

(1) DoDAAD Update to allow space to display fifteen character field.

(2) DAASINQ to allow space to display fifteen character field.

(3) Dropdown list for eDAASINQ to select the new COCOM value for search 

and display fifteen character value in the results.

(4) Any application within DAAS that uses the COCOM field. Additionally, all 

syndication of DoDAAD data will need to include this data field change. 

e. FLIS Portfolio Data Warehouse (FPDW) Program Office. Ensure these changes 

get implemented in all syndication of DoDAAD data from FPDW. 

f. Army and Air Force. Army and Air Force are expected to make the necessary 

changes to their respective DoDAAC applications to mirror these changes to the DoDAAD.

g. Non-DLM 4000.25 Series Publications: The changes identified herein will need to 

be incorporated into the relevant Service/Agency-level DoDAAD management publications, 

including (but not limited to) the following: 

(1) U.S. Army: AR 725-50 

(2) U.S. Air Force: AFI 24-230

(3) U.S. Marine Corps: MCO 4400.201
